Pros
Pro Excellent space combat
SSZ has a fast-paced, skill-based combat system that requires managing speed, position and weapons of the Strike Suit while keeping track of a large number of enemies. Getting rid of a certain number of enemies will transform the agile fighter into a powerful all-killing machine. There are a few levels in the beginning and the middle of the game that require piloting a typical fighter that help illustrate the power of the Suit as well as function as a welcome change of pace.

Cons
Con Not a lot in the form of storytelling
The story is full of cliches, often heavy handed and ultimately insignificant.
Con VR support for Oculus DK1 only
There are no plans announced to support anything beyond DK1.
Con Lacking gameplay variety
There is little variety to be found in the form of enemies and missions.
Con Subscription required for decent gameplay
You need to pay $9.99 for monthly subscription to enjoy it to the fullest.
Con Has in-app-purchases
Vendetta Online is free-to-play but does have in-app-purchases that range from $0.99 - $99.99 per item.
Con Cross platform play leads to mobile users having less control in PvP Mobile
Android and iOS players are all playing together with desktop PC players, which means during dog fighting sequences, the PC players have much finer grained controls over their mobile player opponents. This makes for unfair matching that can lead to mobile players loosing out more often than not if they are facing a PC player. This is also exacerbated by the fact that no one is able to know what platform an opponent may be playing on.
